Royal Canadian Mint - Your coin features a near-faithful reproduction of W. H. J. Blackmore's design for the first Canadian gold coin. The focal point is the Canadian coat of arms, as it appeared before 1921: a quartered shield composed of the provincial arms of the Dominion of Canada (Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick). Beautifully framed by a wreath of maple boughs, the coat of arms is resplendent in selective gold plating that mimics the original coin's golden appearance. The luxurious plating also extends to the rim, as well as the raised beaded circle that frames each side of the coin. The reverse features the word "CANADA" above the coat of arms, while the year "2017" and the face value "250 DOLLARS" are engraved beneath it. The obverse features the official Canada 150 privy mark beneath the gold-plated effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
